"If I could turn around this cluuuuuuub!" What do you get when you cross a sober-ish Christina Aguilera, shiny-faced Cher and TUCCI (!!!!!) with John Waters' twisted version of Grease starring Johnny Depp, Iggy Pop and one of Justin's childhood crushes? THIS WEEK'S PODCAST, y'all. It's a musical-ish double feature with Burlesque and Cry-Baby (1990), 2 movies only a gay man with questionable taste in movies would love. Truth: we didn't hate them. But we didn't love them. Basically, we were stuck in the OK Zone on both. "Hiiiiiiighwaaay to the OK Zoooone." But don't take our word for it. Listen yourself. You might just like it. (It's FREE!) This podcast is rated PG-13 and also contains some truly terrible impressions of Cher and Christina!

Ahh, at last... Two movies right in Krissy's journalistic wheelhouse: "Morning Glory" and "Broadcast News!" Honestly, how she's gone this long seeing the latter is beyond us; especially since she sat in front of the poster for it every day for a year while in J-school (and apparently has a close friend who looks just like Holly Hunter). Maybe she was too busy singing with Jeff Goldblum? Either way, join us we discuss all things adorable, cretinous, and love-triangle-square-y. This podcast is rated a cautionary PG-13, for some colorful (i.e. awful) banter about date rape and Albert Brooks (aka 'whatshisname?')'s son. But not together. Cause that would be TERRIBLE. And definitely NOT what we meant.

Guess what? We got a fever! And the only prescription.. is more cowbell pretty people fighting aliens! First up is a movie about aliens battling Marines in a city that looks nothing like Los Angeles (WE CALL SHENANIGANS!), followed by a 90s classic involving some blonde-haired, blue-eyed Caucasian kids who claim to be from Buenos Aires. Yup, today on Ye Olde Podcast we're discussing the merits (or demerits) of "Battle: Los Angeles" and "Starship Troopers." And two very special guests, Clint Childs and Jessica Laine, stop by to give their collective four cents! Slightly bummed by our own fair city's lack of screen time in movie that has it in the freakin' title, we discuss Aaron Eckhart's butt-chin, Santa Monica, buses on the 10 freeway, other (better) aliens movies, strange slide projector weapons, our favorite character Hector, coed shower scenes, Denise Richards (and her possibly fake ta-tas) & much much more! This podcast contains a lot of ramblin' and it's rated PG-13!

ROMANCE! Action! SCIENCE FICTION! Matt Day-MON! This week, we watch one brand new movie and one older selection with a similar theme: will love survive whatever the cost?!?!?!? Through space, time and multiple doors? Even if strange guys with fedoras and Etch-A-Sketch books don't want it to! Even if the time-traveling mailbox fails to function properly! LOVE WILL CONQUER ALL! Or something. Shut up, Chair Man! It's all romantic and you can't stop it. Filled with the spirit, we discuss romantic lead chemistry, Matt Damon's political career-ness, The Adjustment A-Holes, our romantic density, Emily Blunt's unbelievable hotness, mailboxes, Frequency, time-traveling dogs & more! This podcast is rated PG-13 in the past, present and future!

It's a Nicolas Cage double feature with an intermission of Oscar discussion! This week, we went to see Cage's newest 3D entry into the "give me my daughter/granddaughter back!!!" pantheon of cinema, Drive Angry. And then we watched The Rock, because Krissy had never seen it. The rambling conversation that followed includes Justin sticking up for Cage and his many hairpieces, Amber Heard and her newly out outness/hotness, William Fichtner, Sean Connery & Finding Forrester, Sarah Palin, James Franco & Anne Hathaway, Green Mile guy, Candyman, Not Steve Zahn, anal bath bead rockets & much more! WARNING: This podcast is R-rated! Meaning...it's explicit and there are some 4-letter words. You've been warned!
